Yoshi's Wooly World was first announced (though unnamed at the time) during the January 23 Nintendo Direct broadcast. Supervised by legendary Nintendo developer Takashi Tezuka (who directed both Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Story). Yoshi's Wooly Land is being developed by the team behind Kirby's Epic Yarn (presumably meaning some folks from HAL Laboratory and/or Good-Feel) and appears to be somewhat of a spiritual sequel to that game, with a yarn-made Yoshi acting as the main hero.
